An archaeologist who thought he'd found a prehistoric stone circle was left quite embarrassed after realising that it was just a copy.

Awks!

Back in December 2018, it was reported that a new stone circle, that was around 4,500 years old, was found in Aberdeenshire in Scotland.

The stone circle which is called a 'Recumbent Stone Circle' sits on a farm in Aberdeenshire, was reported by the the farmers who owned the land - it had unusual features including smaller than usual stones.
